report from EP draft guide

He's a true dual-threat winger with two-way upside, a sturdy frame, and the type of competitiveness necessary to hang in there as a vertically-challenged forward. The 5-foot-9 winger has a lethal release that can beat goalies from tough angles and long distances. He wields the best shot out of Finland in this year's draft. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide

Brothers: Matias Simontaival, Niklas Simontaival

Prolific goal-scorer with quick, quality hands.. his shot is a legit threat.. can also deliver dangerous passes., Draftin Europe 2018
